Santhosh Suvarna had his short stack of around 80,000 in the middle and he was put at risk by Jesse Lonis.
Santhosh Suvarna: A♦9♦ 
Jesse Lonis: 10♦10♣
Suvarna was looking for that ace, but never found it as the 8♣Q♥2♣J♠Q♦ runout meant he was sent to the rail.
Phil Ivey jammed for 31,000 from the hijack with Thomas Muehloecker calling from the cutoff, and Jesse Lonis calling out of the big blind.
With Ivey all-in, Lonis and Muehloecker checked the J♣7♠Q♣ flop to see the 9♣ roll off on the turn. Lonis bet 37,000, forcing Muehloecker out of the hand.
Phil Ivey: A♣2♥
Jesse Lonis: Q♥J♦
Lonis had two pair against the flush draw of Ivey. The 6♦ river didn't help Ivey, and he wished everyone good luck as he made his way to the exit.
Laszlo Bujtas had his last few big blinds in the pot and was put at risk by Jean-Noel Thorel.
Laszlo Bujtas: 9♦6♦
Jean-Noel Thorel: K♣10♥
Bujtas had live cards, but was drawing extremely thin after the 3♣4♣K♥ flop gave Thorel top pair. A J♦ on the turn sealed the fate of Bujtas, with the meaningless K♠ on the river improving Thorel to trips.
In a three-bet pot with around 80,000 in the middle, Leon Sturm checked the 8♦3♥9♦ flop from the cutoff and Phil Ivey bet 20,000 on the button. Sturm then made it 51,000, Ivey shoved, and Sturm called off his stack of 219,000.
Leon Sturm: 9♥8♥
Phil Ivey: A♦3♦
Sturm had flopped top two, but needed to fade a lot of outs as Ivey had a pair and the nut flush draw. Luckily for Sturm, nothing changed on the 2♣K♠ runout, and he doubled up, which left Ivey with just 31,000 in his stack.
Level: 10
Blinds: 4,000/8,000
Ante: 8,000
Aleksejs Ponakovs made it 12,000 under the gun with Santhosh Suvarna calling on the button and Jason Koon defending his big blind.
Koon checked the K♥J♣6♦ flop, and Ponakovs put out a continuation-bet of 15,000. Suvarna called, but Koon folded.
Heads-up to the K♠ turn that saw Ponakovs fire a second barrel of 37,000. Again, Suvarna continued in he form of a call.
The 7♥ dropped on the river, and Ponakovs gathered together a third barrel of 135,000. Suvarna deliberated for a while before eventually deciding to call.
Ponakovs flipped over K♦Q♣ for trip kings with a queen-kicker. Suvarna couldn't beat it and flashed a Kx himself as the pot headed over to Ponakovs.
Nikita Kuznetsov opened from middle position to 14,000 and Sameh Elamawy called from the hijack.
They saw a flop of J♦5♥7♣, where Kuznetsov made a continuation-bet of 10,000 and Elamawy called to the 8♠ turn. Kuznetsov bet again, this time for 15,000, and again Elamawy called.
When the Q♠ landed on the river, Kuznetsov fired a third barrel into the pot for 31,000, and Elamawy called within a few seconds.
Kuznetsov then flipped Q♣10♦ for a rivered pair of queens, and Elamawy mucked.
Nikita Kuznetsov raised to 12,000 under the gun before Steve O'Dwyer three-bet to 40,000 from middle position. Tom Vogelsang four-bet to 80,000 out of the cutoff, and then Espen Jorstad put in the rare cold five-bet jam for 159,000 out of the big blind. Kuznetsov and O'Dwyer instantly folded, but Vogelsang called to put Jorstad at risk.
Espen Jorstad: A♦K♣
Tom Vogelsang: Q♦Q♥
Jorstad was the player at risk in the flip, although he took a commanding lead on the K♦3♦7♠ flop as he improved to top pair. Vogelsang couldn't find a queen on the 6♦ turn or 9♥ river, and he had to send roughly half of his stack over to Jorstad.
